Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Tuesday, Veronica Diaz, who provided the Tiffany For Wisconsin political campaign on January 28, 2026 with more than $2,000 worth of campaign promotions that included photo ops, and a social media video, and personal meets with Milwaukee Latino business owners and other services in the metropolitan area in Milwaukee County told Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) that Landis Holdorf, the campaign manager for Tiffany For Wisconsin has to date failed and neglected to pay in full, all the promotional services provided to the Tiffany campaign by Diaz. (Diaz's Facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1LKTNyVEed/)

Currently, Diaz has attempted to collect on her Tiffany for Wisconsin contract billing, with no success.

U.S. Congressman Thomas "Tom" P. Tiffany (R-WI) who is a Republican candidate for Governor in Wisconsin was recently endorsed by Donald J. Trump. It seems, that the Tiffany For Wisconsin can't even pay a mere $2,000 contractor promotional advertising bill today, eventhough the Tiffany campaign has generated thousands of campaign donations. (Tiffany's Facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1Au2qhHsgZ/)

Diaz says, "that it's disheartening that someone who missed time away from work to support a campaign that I believed in, shouldn't treat someone this way."

Diaz told HNNUSA, that she is looking forward to get her promotional services paid in full, which were rendered to the Tiffany For Wisconsin.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Wednesday, the Milwaukee Common Council announced that it will propose multiple ICE Out initiatives to confront the upcoming and anticipated invasion of USICE-ERO-CBP in Milwaukee and protect city residents including the undocumented immigrant population in the City of Milwaukee. The proposed initiatives are to unmask USICE-CBP agents including all law enforcement, have USICE-CBP agents wear identification during immigration operations, prohibit all law enforcement from using city-owned property to initiate immigration enforcement operations, and etc..

The proposed legislative measures will be discussed in upcoming weeks and then approved.

Other cities in the country have passed initiatives that allow local police to enforce local laws, if they witness USICE-ERO-CBP agents violating city ordinances and state laws when engaging with local residents.

In the City of Milwaukee, the Milwaukee Police Association is infiltrated by MAGAs (Make Amerikkka Great Again) Trump supporters who endorsed the president in 2020 and in 2024, which draws questions whether Milwaukee police officers will actually protect city residents who pay their salaries or will they protect USICE-ERO-CBP while they engage in illegal and unconstitutional activities in Milwaukee?

An ICE Out Awareness Southside community meeting with Alders Burgelis, Zamarripa and Milwaukee County Supervisor Capriolo is scheduled for Wednesday, February 25, 2026 at Alverno College's Christopher Hall Wehr Auditorium at 4100 W. Morgan Ave., starts at 4:30 p.m. in Milwaukee.

Elkhorn, Wisconsin - On December 19, 2025, the Walworth County District Attorney's Office filed one felony count for bail jumping against Julie C. Valadez, 41, in addition to two prior felony charges filed on February 3, 2023 for interfering with child custody of other parent including party to a crime, and for interfering with custody after custody order including party to a crime regarding her then 15-year-old son Ethan D. Valadez (now 18) who ran away from his abusive father, Ricardo Valadez, a former pastor in Waukesha, Wisconsin. (Article link: http://hispanicnewsnetwork.blogspot.com/2025/08/free-at-last-41-year-old-julie-c.html)

At the time when Ethan ran away, he fled to Canada to be with his mother, Julie who was seeking asylum, Ethan also sought asylum in Canada, but he was forced by the Canadian immigration services to cross back involuntary into the U.S. with his father. Once, Ethan and his abusive father arrived at the Milwaukee Intentional Airport, it was decided that Ethan would stay with Julie's parents.

Later in May 2025, Julie decided to return to the U.S. and face the frivolous criminal charges filed in Walworth County against her. (Article link: http://hispanicnewsnetwork.blogspot.com/2025/08/41-year-old-julie-c-valadez-jailed-for.html)

History: Julie's 4 children were illegally taken away from her by Waukesha County Family Court Judge Michael Aprahamian, despite the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling that he failed to follow state law and was ordered to correct his error. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals District II on February 2, 2022 ruled that Waukesha County Judge Aprahamian erred in removing full custody from Julie in the divorce case and awarded full custody of their children to the father who was found to be a known domestic abuser and couldn't prove in court that he had complied with state law by submitting to a state certified batterer's treatment program and completing the program as required by law.

Judge Aprahamian was forced to remove himself from the divorce case in Julie Valadez v. Ricardo Valadez in Waukesha County. Then, Waukesha County Family Court Judge Ralph M. Ramirez was assigned to the case and he allowed for Judge Aprahamian's illegal decision to place Julie's 4 children with their abusive father to continue. To date, Judge Ramirez was later removed from the Valadez divorce case and Judge Jennifer R. Dorow took over the case who has also failed to abide by the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling to correct Judge Aprahamian's erroneous decision, and to allow Julie joint custody of her children as well.

Waukesha County judges Aprahamian, Ramirez and Dorow have never held a court hearing to determine, if Julie was an unfit mother, but rather their decisions to continue to ignore the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling to correct Judge Aprahamian's error continues today with no accountability. According to state law, abused children are not normally placed with an abusive parent for their safety, which in this case was Ricardo Valadez.

Julie Valadez and her family were recognized as the United Migrant Opportunity Services (UMOS) Hispanic Family of the Year in 2017.

In the Walworth County two criminal cases, Julie's attorney has requested the court to remove the Walworth County District Attorney's Office from the case and appoint a special prosecutor, according to Walworth County court records.

To date, the Walworth County District Attorney's Office has failed to provide Julie's attorney with the discovery documents.

If convicted, Julie is facing up to 6 years in prison and up to $10,000 in fines, or both for bail jumping, and she is also facing up to 12 years and 6 months in prison and up to $25,000 in fines for each count of interfering with child custody of other parent including party to a crime, and for interfering with custody after custody order including party to a crime.

Julie's next Walworth County court appearance for a preliminary hearing for bail jumping is February 12, 2026, and for the two other criminal charges proceedings is set for February 12, 2026 as well, and February 16, 2026 to February 19, 2026 for jury trial (12-person jury), according to Walworth County court records.

Justice for Julie and her 4 children!

Editor's note: The corrupt Republican controlled Waukesha County Family Court involving Judges Michael J. Aprahamian, Ralph M. Ramirez and Jennifer R. Dorow have kept Julie Valadez from seeing her 4 kids for nearly 10 years.
